More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
With the goodness of God to desire our highest welfare, the wisdom of God to plan it, and the power of God to achieve it, what do we lack? Surely we are the most favored of all creatures.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
When you focus on the eternal, victorious Son of God, you break the devil's heart and render him powerless.

It is a high Christian privilege to pray for one another within each local church body and then for other believers throughout the world. As a Christian minister, I have no right to preach to people I have not prayed for. That is my strong conviction.

God calls us to worship, but in many instances we are in entertainment, just running a poor second to the theaters. That is where we are, even in the evangelical churches, and I don't mind telling you that most of the people we say we are trying to reach will never come to a church to see a lot of amateur actors putting on a home-talent show.

The gravest question any of us face is whether we do or do not love the Lord.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
In the Bible, the race of life is never considered from the viewpoint of speed... We are to run it with patience.

God desires to reveal to us that His capacity to forgive is bigger than our capacity to sin.

The doctrine of the Trinity...is truth for the heart. The fact that it can not be satisfactorily explained, instead of being against it, is in its favor. Such a truth had to be revealed no one could imagine it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The basic trouble with the church today is her unworthy concept of God... Our religion is weak because our God is weak... Christianity at any given time is strong or weak depending on her concept of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Let her love God as He is in Himself, and not as her imagination says He is, and pictures Him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Faith is occupied with the Object upon which it rests and pays no attention to itself at all.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
I do not know why God does some things, but I am convinced that nothing is accidental in his universe.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Be thankful, but be careful that you don't become so enamored of God's good gifts that you fail to worship the giver.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
He (God) may sometimes chasten us, it is true, but even this He does with a smile, the proud, tender smile of a Father who is bursting with pleasure over an imperfect but promising son who is coming every day to look more and more like the One whose child he is.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
One thing is certain: the call of Christ is always a promotion. Were Christ to call a king from his throne to preach the gospel to some tribe of aborigines, that king would be elevated above anything he had known before. Any movement toward Christ is ascent, and any direction away from Him is down.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
You will never please everybody. Some men will say you have gone too far. Other men will say you haven't gone far enough. I just compromise and say I won't please anybody.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The poor quality of Christian that grows out of our modern evangelistic meeting may be accounted for by the absence of real repentance accompanying the initial spiritual experience of the converts. And the absence of repentance is the result of an inadequate view of sin and sinfulness held by those who present themselves in the inquiry room.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
You can see God from anywhere if your mind is set to love and obey Him.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God answers our prayers not because we are good, but because He is good.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
One of the most popular current errors, and the one out of which springs most of the noisy, blustering religious activity in evangelical circles, is the notion that as times change the church must change with them.
